Question

Cot^(2)x(1+tan^(2)x) What is the answer and the solution for this equation?

Answer 1

`cot^2x(1+tan^2x)=csc^2x`

Explanation:

This is not an equation, as sign of equality is not there. However, we can simplify it as shown below.

`cot^2x(1+tan^2x)`

= `cot^2x+cot^2x xx tan^2x` - as `cotx xxtanx=1`

= `cot^2x+1`

= `csc^2x`
